Populism is on the rise today—or so we're told.  But what is populism?  Is it something to be feared or should it only be concerning to those dastardly elites?  Is populism a political movement of the Left or the Right?  Is it only a phenomenon of the politics of today, or has populism existed in some form throughout our nation's history?  Does populism protect the individual from powerful interests or endanger our liberties?  How does populism fit into the conservative tradition?   Josh is joined by Shikha Dalmia of the Mercatus Center at George Mason University to delve into these very questions.  While the first half of this atypically long episode explores populism, the latter end of the conversation covers the various factions of the New Right.  Factions Shikha has dubbed the Flight 93ers, the Integralists, the National Conservatives, and the Red-Pilled Anarcho Bros.  While traditional conservatives can find some value in all four groups, ultimately they represent a departure from the conservative view.   About Shikha Dalmia   From Shikha's bio at the Mercatus Center: Shikha Dalmia is a visiting fellow with the Mercatus Center's Program on Pluralism and Civil Exchange whose work focuses on populist authoritarianism.  Previously, Dalmia was a writer at Reason Magazine and a senior analyst at Reason Foundation, a nonprofit think tank.  She is a columnist at The Week, and writes regularly for Bloomberg View, The New York Times, USA Today, and numerous other publications.  From 1996-2004, Dalmia was an editorial writer at Detroit News.   Dalmia has an M.A. in Mass Communication from Louisiana State University and a B.S. in Chemistry and Biology from the University of Delhi.  You can subscribe to Dalmia's substack, The UnPopulist, dedicated to defending open liberal societies from populist authoritarian attacks.  And can follow Shikha on Twitter @shikhadalmia

Denise Crittendon, "Where it Rains in Color" (Angry Robot, 2022)

Denise Crittendon's debut science fiction novel,Where it Rains in Color (Angry Robot, 2022), is set far in the future, long after the Earth has been destroyed, on the planet of Swazembi. Swazembi is a color-rich utopia and famous vacation center of the Milky Way. No one is used to serious trouble in this idyllic, peace-loving world, least of all the Rare Indigo. But Lileala's perfect, pampered lifestyle is about to be shattered. Published on the cusp of Crittendon's 70th birthday, the novel's creation was decades in the making. Ideas were jotted down and relegated to a drawer while her work as a journalist and ghostwriter took front seat. Inspiration was gathered from her time in Zimbabwe and a recurring dream she had over many years. “The dream influenced the novel a great deal,” says Crittendon. “The novel was kind of built around the dream. When I finally started writing it again, then the dreams came back. And then I stopped and the dreams went away. When I finally got a chance to do that final push, I never had a dream again.” That experience layers an almost metaphysical presence to a story that already includes a different kind of worldbuilding from what we normally see in science fiction. From Swazembi's galaxy-renowned wind-force public transit system and nuanced cultural greeting of “waves of joy” to the noted lack of violence throughout, the novel offers a fresh perspective on what sci fi can be.

Denise Crittendon's debut science fiction novel,Where it Rains in Color (Angry Robot, 2022), is set far in the future, long after the Earth has been destroyed, on the planet of Swazembi. Swazembi is a color-rich utopia and famous vacation center of the Milky Way. No one is used to serious trouble in this idyllic, peace-loving world, least of all the Rare Indigo. But Lileala's perfect, pampered lifestyle is about to be shattered. Published on the cusp of Crittendon's 70th birthday, the novel's creation was decades in the making. Ideas were jotted down and relegated to a drawer while her work as a journalist and ghostwriter took front seat. Inspiration was gathered from her time in Zimbabwe and a recurring dream she had over many years. “The dream influenced the novel a great deal,” says Crittendon. “The novel was kind of built around the dream. When I finally started writing it again, then the dreams came back. And then I stopped and the dreams went away.
